Congratulations to Rachel Gough (I think @drrachelgough.bsky.social?) who won the Flash Fiction Award and gets to attend what looks like an amazing festival! And thanks to @katiescribbles.bsky.social for putting the #WriteByTheSea competition in her newsletter - a great resource for writers. 💚

Delegates from last year’s conference might remember our charming little ghost, who hid all over @UCC campus for delegates to find. He’s looking forward to haunting delegates again this November!
